Through September, Petplan pet insurance company is accepting nominations for its 2016 Veterinary Awards. By nominating, pet parents can secure a donation for a pet-related cause while thanking the professionals who keep their own pets healthy — for every nomination, Petplan will donate $1 to pets in need at Adopt-a-Pet.com, GreaterGood.org or Morris Animal Foundation (nominators may divvy their donations however they’d like).

Awards are six categories: Veterinarian, Veterinary Technician, Practice Manager, Receptionist and Pet Parent of the Year. Winners will be honored in January at Petplan’s Veterinary Awards in Orlando, held in tandem with the North American Veterinary Community Conference. Winners receive cash, goodies, and a donation on their behalf to a pet-related charity of their choice. Vote or learn more at gopetplan.com/vet-awards.
